Product details
Overview
1N755AE3/TR from Microsemi is a 500 mW, 7.5 V ±5% Zener diode in DO-35 glass axial package, qualified to JANTX level per MIL-PRF-19500/127, with 4 Ω dynamic impedance at 50 mA and +0.058 %/°C temperature coefficient - used for precision voltage reference and overvoltage protection in military power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the 1N755AE3/TR datasheet, 1N755AE3/TR pinout, 1N755AE3/TR application, or 1N755AE3/TR equivalent, key selection criteria include Zener voltage tolerance, thermal resistance (250 °C/W junction-to-lead), RoHS compliance (e3 suffix), military qualification level, and DO-35 mechanical robustness under extended temperature cycling.
Technical Context
This device operates as a reverse-biased voltage regulator with a nominal Zener voltage of 7.5 V at 50 mA test current (IZT), exhibiting low dynamic impedance (4 Ω) and positive temperature coefficient (+0.058 %/°C) above 5 V. It maintains regulation across -65 °C to +175 °C operating range with metallurgical bond construction ensuring reliability under thermal shock.
Designed for fixed-voltage reference and shunt regulation, the 1N755AE3/TR delivers stable output under varying load and temperature conditions, with maximum reverse leakage of 2 µA at 5.0 V and forward voltage of 1.1 V at 200 mA - enabling use in both regulation and clamping roles within analog and power circuits.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1N755AUR-1 | Same 7.5 V, ±5%, DO-213AA (MELF) surface-mount package; no military qualification | Used where PCB space is constrained and reflow assembly required; lacks JANTX screening | Select when RoHS-compliant SMT mounting is mandatory and MIL-spec screening is not required |

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage and tolerance of the 1N755AE3/TR?
The 1N755AE3/TR has a nominal Zener voltage of 7.5 V at 50 mA test current (IZT) with a ±5% tolerance (A grade). This tolerance is confirmed in the Electrical Characteristics table on page 3 of Microsemi T4-LDS-0288 Rev. 1, and applies across the full operating temperature range of -65 °C to +175 °C. The 1N755AE3/TR maintains this specification under MIL-PRF-19500/127 JANTX screening.
Is the 1N755AE3/TR RoHS compliant?
Yes, the 1N755AE3/TR is RoHS compliant, indicated by the "e3" suffix in its nomenclature. Per Microsemi documentation, e3 denotes RoHS-compliant matte-tin plating on commercial-grade devices - and although this part carries JANTX qualification, the e3 marking confirms compliance with EU Directive 2011/65/EU. The 1N755AE3/TR meets solderability requirements per MIL-STD-750 method 2026.
What package type does the 1N755AE3/TR use?
The 1N755AE3/TR uses the DO-35 (DO-204AH) hermetically sealed glass axial-leaded package, as specified in the Mechanical and Packaging section of T4-LDS-0288. Dimensions are provided on page 6, with body diameter 1.40–2.29 mm and overall length 25.4–38.1 mm. The cathode is marked by a band, and leads are tin-lead or RoHS-compliant matte-tin plated.
What is the maximum power dissipation for the 1N755AE3/TR?
The 1N755AE3/TR has an average rated power dissipation of 500 mW at lead temperature (TL) = +50 °C with 0.375 inch (9.53 mm) lead length from body, derating linearly to zero at +175 °C. When mounted on a PCB, it is rated for 400 mW at ambient temperature (TA) = +55 °C, per the Maximum Ratings table on page 1 of T4-LDS-0288. Thermal resistance junction-to-lead is 250 °C/W.
Does the 1N755AE3/TR have military qualification?
Yes, the 1N755AE3/TR is qualified to JANTX level per MIL-PRF-19500/127, as stated in the DESCRIPTION and PART NOMENCLATURE sections of T4-LDS-0288. The "A" in the part number indicates ±5% tolerance, and the absence of a reliability level prefix (e.g., JAN, JANTXV) implies JANTX grade by default for this series. It undergoes screening including burn-in, temperature cycling, and lot acceptance testing.
